Lecture Notes on Emergency Medicine

This core text covers all aspects of accident and emergency medicine. It concentrates on the essentials with "immediate action" first and then subsequent treatments. Crafted by two outstanding physicians, it has been written for students and trainees in accident and emergency medicine. Additionally, it will be invaluable as an information and instruction source for the lay person, as well as primary-care doctors and nurses, who need to know how to diagnose and manage the early stages of acute medical problems such as asthma or a broken bone.
